159 but I need to be at 150 for cycling fitness. I hover between 160 and 165 during tri season.

Hmmm, maybe I do have the potential to beat you in the climbs if I work at it.

I expected you to weigh less.

After years and years of weightlifting, I've had trouble losing muscle mass in the upper body. I've lost about ten to fifteen pounds in the chest and arms but probably have some more to go.

If I got to my high school weight of 135, I'd be a climber but look like shit.

Mike I know this shatters your visual of me being a fat ass, but I just came in at 184.

And you're George Hincapie, but better looking. A single day classic rider is our Viking.

George and I weigh about the same, but he is 6 inches taller than me.

But yes, I am better looking than he is. And my wife is better looking than his.
